At Tim D’s school, there are seven English teachers, all Kazakh. Amber, Tim, and I had tea with them, and we went around the table introducing ourselves. “I am Aizhan. My name means ‘wise moon’” “I am Nazgul. My name means ‘tender flower’” “I am Aizhan. My name means ‘moon soul.’” “I am Kamshat. My name means ‘beaver.’” “I am Zhanna. My name means ‘eagle.’” The last English teacher said her name and what it meant, then said: “We are as the American Indians.” Tee hee.
